Who's Michael Owen Anyway?

I honestly am so lazy to answer that question. Almost all people in this earth (esp. football/soccer fan) already knew who's Michael Owen. But if you still don't know who's he, then I'll tell you. Michael Owen is known as one of legend in English football. He plays for Liverpool FC, one of legendary English club, since he was a kid till now. He was the youngest English player at World Cup 1998 (he was not even 19 at that time). He scored a phenomenal goal to the Argentine's post at St. Etiene stadium, French, 1998. That goal was the beginning of his fame in this world. Since that time a lot of people, even the old legendary footballers such as Pele & Gary Lineker praise him. He seems like a hero for England and he's got some nicknames like Wonder Boy, English Phenomenon, etc. And even though some people might asking about his performance (that MAYBE not as good as at younger years a go), he still can proof that he's still an excellent footballer by the goals he scored for his club & his country.
